Taas-pasahe sa bus, hiniling ng operators dahil umano sa dagdag-gastos sa operasyon

2 days ago

Dagdag-pasahe sa bus ang hiling ng mga operator hindi lamang sa Metro Manila kundi ng mga papunta o galing probinsya. Nababahala na ang LTFRB dahil halos lahat ng pampublikong sasakyan ay may petisyon o dagdag-singil.

00:00Operators are asking for additional bus fare, not only in Metro Manila, but also those who are coming and going from the province.

00:07The LTFRB is now in charge because almost all public vehicles have a petition to be added.

00:14Joseph Moro is back.

00:19Bus operators are asking for two pesos extra for their bus fare for ordinary and aircon buses in Metro Manila.

00:28Provincial buses are also asking for almost two pesos,

00:31aside from the lack of 50 centimers added, depending on the type of bus.

00:36In the hearing of the petition in the LTFRB, bus operators were asked to increase their expenses by 15 percent

00:44in operations such as spare parts, toll fee, additional expenses in benefits and salaries to drivers

00:50such as SSS, and payment to terminals that are asking for 35 pesos per unit.

00:56They did not include the high and low price of crude oil.

00:59Another issue is the 6,000 per unit. If you are operating 10, that is 60,000 a month, aside from the everyday operation.

01:09That's too much for us. That's painful for us.

01:12I hope commuters will understand. The inflation has a big effect on all of us.

01:18While the LTFRB has not yet decided on an interim or provisional increase of two pesos.

01:25It's already heavy for some commuters, such as Rose, who is paying 23 pesos for a jeep and 28 pesos for a bus.

01:34It's already difficult, sir. Because we are only seeing how much we are earning every day.

01:39The bus is already expensive.

01:40Why?

01:41Of course, if your vehicle is just getting closer, you will add two pesos.

01:46Even though the LTFRB is in charge of almost everything,

01:50the public vehicle is asking for a high fare, jeep, bus, and TNVS.

01:55According to the LTFRB, they will resolve the petitions as soon as possible.

02:00Next week, the hearing for the petition of TNVS will be held for 25 pesos, which is added to their flag down rate.

02:08The jeeps are done with the hearing for five pesos added to the minimum fare and two pesos per kilometer.

02:16The LTFRB will do its best to resolve the petitions within 45 days.

02:21If ever, for the buses, they can provide a provisional increase, but the commuters and operators need to balance their earnings.

02:30Any increase will make it difficult for the consumers.

02:33Any increase would probably affect the economy. It would trigger an increase in the inflation.

02:41At least, we have some additional.
